Hi
I have a T25 camper with a 3.9efi. Up until 6 months ago its been as good as gold but has now developed 2 problems.
1 often wont start unless I apply 12V across coil or it fires as the cranking is released.
2 when accelerating once 3000rpm is hit the engine will hold back (like a rev limit) with some spitting sounds out the exhaust.
Could this be a common issue like maybe ignition amp?

Thanks

James

Welcome to LZ, James. :)

I would guess that might be an issue associated with the electronic control systems on the engine. Although it could be a failing coil.

I don't have much to do with petrol engines, at least not recently. As there is no VW section on the forum, I would suggest you post about it in the Range Rover section. They like their V8s.
